interview With Brennan stang, Director of Client services, Innerspace

Space utilization on campus has always been a work in progress. Institutions growing and shifting and changing is a constant, and planners and decision-makers are required to make big, expensive decisions on investments regularly. 

The pandemic, combined with shifts and technology and demographic changes have meant that some of the longer-term plans for campuses may need to be reassessed, in order to ensure an agile campus that’s able to accommodate changes to the plan while remaining a place for students to learn, and for researchers to do their best work. 

Brennan Stang, Director of Client Services for InnerSpace has spent a considerable amount of time talking to decision-makers on campus about their spaces, where they’re going and what they need to make spaces for the next generations of learners.
